Artists young and old, professional and amateur, enjoyed the final day of the Great Gulfcoast Arts Festival under the shade of the giant oak trees in downtown Pensacola today.
"Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." -Picasso
Palm trees, bicycles, flip flops, pelicans, skateboards, fishing boats and dolphins... this small peninsula town of almost 6,000 residents wedged between Pensacola Bay and the Gulf of Mexico is defined by salt water and live oaks, sand and sun, and the occasional hurricane. The landscape shaped - then re-shaped - by storms past... the ocean, sound and bay offering a visual feast of color and motion that is never the same from one day to the next. For most, Gulf Breeze is a place to pass through on the way to somewhere else, and for them, the unique character of this town and its people goes unnoticed...
Love those young chalk artists. Did you carry away any of this student art?
